Gays violate God's canon
In love of my fellow man, I write in
the spirit of humility and meekness
upon the topic of homosexuality.
God's perspective on homosexual re
lationships has not changed since it
was first decreed. In Leviticus 18:22
are the words, 'Thou shalt not lie with
mankind
as with
w o m -
ankind: It
is abomi
nation."
It is not true that the Bible, in partic
ular the New Testament does not con
demn homosexuality. In Romans
chapter 1, Paul asserts, 'The wrath of
God is revealed from Heaven against
all ungodliness" (Romans 1:18). Be
cause of sin, "God gave them up unto
vile affections: for even their women
did change the natural use into that

f
which is against nature: And likewise
also the men ... burned in their lust
toward one another" (Romans 1:26
27). 1 Corinthians states: "Be not de
ceived: Neither fornicators, nor idol
aters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate,
nor abusers of themselves with
mankind ... shall inherit the kingdom
of God." 1 Timothy says: "The law is
not made for righteous man, but for
the lawless and disobedient...."
Here follows a list of sinners, in
cluding: "them that defile themselves
with mankind" (1 Tim. 1:9-10). Jude
describes the state of those who come
under judgment: "Even as Sodom and
Gomorrah ... going after strange
flesh, are set forth for an example, suf
fering the vengeance of eternal fire"
(Jude 1:7).

no doubt of the doctrine of God. I im
plore you, do not take my word for it;
examine the scriptures for yourself;
cease to be ignorant. Make your
choice, but let it be your own, not
based upon arguments given by oth
ers. Read, study, pray, and you shall re
ceive your answer.
Homosexual marriage is not con
doned by God no matter how many
governments approve of it. That is
okay. No one is forced to serve the
God of Israel. But as for me and my
house, we will serve the Lord (Joshua
24:15). For further information or ac

Bible, visit http://www.monnon.org

Jesus Christ of letter Day Saints.

Oh, and some of the dividends you
forgot to mention are the soaring
debt, which will never be paid by our
generation but our grandchildrens',
three million more people out of
work, a jobless economy and almost
every promise broken by a man who „
never intended to keep them — not to
invade Social Security, not to use the £
9/11 tragedy for political purposes —
No Child left Behind (without fund- *
ing of course), and as a direct result of
the war in Iraq, increased terrorism in
that country, not to mention the fact
that we are less secure now because of
the war.
This president has lied to the
American public since day one of his

ford, Texas, where he can chop wood
